Aluminium nitride (AlN) is considered as a substrate material for microelectronic applications. AlN ceramic composites with dierent amount of TiO2 (up to 4 vol.%) were obtained using hot pressing at dierent sintering temperature from 1700 to 1900 °C. It was shown that milling of the raw AlN powder has strongly inuence on sintering and improves densication. Broadband dielectric spectroscopy was used as a nondestructive method for monitoring of the ceramic microstructures. TiO2 additive aects the key properties of AlN ceramics. Thus, porosity of 0.1 %, dielectric permeability of σ = 9.7 and dielectric loss tangent of tanδ = 1.3·10-3 can be achieved if up to 2 vol.% TiO2 is added
